Remarks by António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, at the Commemoration of the 31st anniversary of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda on the occasion of the International Day of Reflection on the Genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda. -------------------------------------- On the 31st Commemoration of the International Day of Reflection on the 1994 Genocide Against the Tutsi in Rwanda, UN chief said, “as we reflect on how these crimes came about, we must also reflect on resonance with our own times.” Addressing the commemorative ceremony at the General Assembly Guterres said, “This terrible period of Rwanda’s history reminds us that no society is immune from hate and horror. And as we reflect on how these crimes came about, we must also reflect on resonance with our own times. These are days of division.” He also called on all countries to become parties to the Genocide Convention “without delay. And to honour the responsibility to protect their populations from genocide, war crimes, ethnic cleansing and crimes against humanity.”
